    I'll be starting late probably about 8:00 AM after I get the wife off to work. Then somewhere around noon I have to help a friend chainsaw up a tree that came down in the last storm we had. Also I'll have to repair my pop-up blind that said tree fell on then move it to a new location. I'll be using one of my recurves on this hunt.

    Next week I'll be on vacation and plan to hunt several times.

    They have a hunt going on in May? kinda hard to tell if the deer is male or female when the bucks don't have much for bone on the head.

    Who has a hunt in May?
    It's called antlerless because buck or doe is legal as long as there's nothing on their head.

    When I woke up this morning I was feeling sick as heck, I went back to bed. I'm up now moving sluggish. I think the day will be a bust.

    Sorry I meant April, but I'm still not understanding this hunt you are doing? it's a deer hunt right? cause to me that's what it sounds like. I'm confused by it because I've never heard of a archery deer hunt in the spring.

    Yes it's for deer. In the counties I hunt the late Archery Season runs until April 26th. After that "Kill Permit" season starts and runs until September. Yes, I bowhunt 12 months a year.
